Luna has a nice balance (1 grip)...My Scale says all of them are 2.11 :D....

SS KP is 2.9 ish and when you add 2 grips it is about right...

Porthos ie Black Prince (2 Grips) is around 2.10 to 2.11 but picks up like a 2.7..

Thanks mate. Black Prince is a good bat and my all time favorite and trusted stick...Like Musketeers he is there always for rescue when times are bad :D... Gary makes good bats and is very good and flexible when it comes to purchasing something from him. You can ask any questions and he will clearly give you an answer. Plus if you dont like the stickers then you have many other choices like say Templar,Saladdin etc... :)

No Mate. Gary from Redback is Gary Day. Gary Day makes great bats as well Paradox LE is one on my list lol..(Wisden cricket bat of year for 2011)

Choice Willow is owned and run by Gary Sanford. Black Prince was Wisden cricket bat of year for 2010.

Gary also makes bats for Vulcan here. Vulcans custom is made by Gary Sanford. :D

There you go Vulcan's seal of approval. If I am correct Vulcan is doing a good deal for handmade custom bats from Gary so everyone can pick up a bargain from Vulcan and get the same quality willow. :D
